Ordered this after reading some good reviews by other customers. It's definitely alot better than my previous third party battery. That old battery that stopped working when it was low on power, would just shut down by itself without warning (no beeping sound). This battery is like my original Panasonic battery, where it'll tell me (indicator on the lcd screen) if power is low and will shut down gracefully when the power is too low (it'll beep). The battery power after fully charged last as almost good as my original battery. None that I can think of. When i ordered this, i actually ordered another battery through ebay as i was very worried about the delivery time since i wanted the a replacment battery before going on an overseas trip. They actually arrived on the same week (about 5-6 weeks later) which the ebay reaching earlier. The battery i got from ebay is exactly like my old faulty battery. It'd shut down abrupty by itslef without warning and the power seems to drain faster than my original battery and this one. Good battery. I'd gladly ordered another unit of this battery in the future. Read more

Very good battery.
I use this and the original on my GH1 interchangely (one in my camera, the other one charging). They both perform the same, for 10 months by now.
Both have been charged and used until empty at least 50 times, and I see no degradation. I did take care to used a 'hacked' upgrade...Very good battery.
I use this and the original on my GH1 interchangely (one in my camera, the other one charging). They both perform the same, for 10 months by now.
Both have been charged and used until empty at least 50 times, and I see no degradation. I did take care to used a 'hacked' upgrade to V1.2 of the firmware, no issues with this.
No cons except for that.
(and I DO like my camera, as oposed to a previous post here). Never be caught without a freshly charged battery (or without free space on your memory card ...). Buy this battery as a spare. Read more

Cheap and has more mAh than the original battery. (I just received it so I haven't yet tested how long it lasts, but it works out of the box on my Panasonic DMC-G2 (Firmware 1.0)

Physically it looks identical to the original Panasonic battery, just a different sticker. I've heard that it might not work directly with some cameras and firmware versions. If you have a G2 with FW 1.0 (you can check in the menu) I definitely recommend buying this. Price quality ratio seems good. (first day's impression) Read more

Cheap alternative from buying the expensive Lumix battery. Does the job, and works fairly well. Battery life is SIGNIFICANTLY less than stock Lumix battery. I would estimate a little less than 1/2 the capacity. Don't trust the 1350mAh! That is SO bogus. Might have to hack your firmware using in a...Cheap alternative from buying the expensive Lumix battery. Does the job, and works fairly well. Battery life is SIGNIFICANTLY less than stock Lumix battery. I would estimate a little less than 1/2 the capacity. Don't trust the 1350mAh! That is SO bogus. Might have to hack your firmware using PTOOL in order to use non-stock batteries. The weight of the battery pack is noticeably less than the stock battery. Feels cheap, lightweight, and feels mostly like empty space. If you find yourself running low on your shooting sessions with the GF1, and you need a backup for maybe 200-250 or more exposures, this is your best bet! Just don't use this battery as an alternative to your stock battery. Read more

Like most cameras this unit came with one battery and additional batteries cost nearly $80.00 Canadian. I saw these on DX and saw others claiming that one would require a firmware update in order to use the battery. Upon arrival, I charged the batteries up and stuck them in my camera and the camera fired up immediately, no warnings or anything. At nearly 1/8th of the cost this is a phenomenal investment that you will not regret. None Absolutely great value.
Product build is identical to Panasonic
Save yourself $$$
Once again, another great product from DX Read more

As the previous reviewer mentioned, the official Panasonic firmware will prevent 3rd party batteries from being used. *HOWEVER* there is a firmware hack which enables 3rd party batteries (and a ton of other features) to be used with the latest firmware. Do a search for it on the net and you'll find it... None! This is an excellent and cost effective alternative to buying an official battery. Read more

You do have to upgrade you camera firmware with a firmware file you will download from rapidshare. You need to trust whoever sent you there. I did it and it worked, but I do not take responsability. There are 2 versions of the 1.2 firmware, if you upgrade to 1.2 or later withouth the battery glitch you probably won't be able to downgrade to 1.2. ATTENTION: If you do not have a GH1 and is looking forward to buy one, DO NOT BUY THE CAMERA. It's a crappy camera that only pissed me off until the day i returned it to the store and got me a canon 7D (now this is a camera). It does it's job. It's a good battery, as good as the original one. If you can upgrade you camera go for it. Read more
